To Siva, and hundreds of similarly situated folks:

I don't know you, but if you are like a lot of us, you will find that you
will need more time to prepare for the lab than from now until June, and
want to save you the hassle of trying to reschedule on short notice.  Okay,
that will be easy for you, because you are in Sydney, where lab dates are
always plentiful.  It won't be so easy for many of those others in the same
boat, though.

If you are already the king of Cisco knowledge, the guru that everyone in
Worldcom/UUNET or IBM Global Network Solutions, or a similar outfit look to
for guidance on the details of Cisco networking, and you are just getting
the CCIE to put icing on the cake then go ahead and schedule the exam for
June.

Most of us are not that guru, and we still have a lot to learn.  Even the
folks with many years of high-level industry experience (I am NOT one of
them, by the way), find that there are huge swaths of difficult CCIE
material that they have never dealt with in their work.  Someone at an ISP
may be a guru on BGP, but may have never had to do anything with DLSW+.
Conversely, someone in an IBM Mainframe data center may be the guru of
DLSW+, but may have never touched BGP,  EIGRP, or otehr important Cisco
topics.

Many people have never configured VOIP, or VOFR, or ATM in their day job.
Only a few have ever done anything with a 3920 token ring switch in their
day job.  The 3920 is not that tough to learn about, but it will take at
least  few hours on a rental rack to get comfortable with.

Best regards,
Tom Larus
